Has anyone else had new sleep issues pop up now that LO is one? We had him trained so well; put him in his crib and he would just roll over and sleep without a fuss. Since he turned one though he now stands in his crib and SCREAMS every night, every nap and every wake up. It is a different scream too, almost like he is afraid? We have tried leaving him to work it out but he will go for 30 min without letting up. We have gone in but he just wants to be picked up and held. I have even let him back in our bed but he won't sleep, just wants to roll around and play. Anyone else going through this or have any tips?

Just in the past 3 nights something similar to this has popped up for us. My LO will be 13 months in 3 days and the past three nights around 4 am she has just woken up screaming. I've tried to see if she'll work it out and sometimes you can even hear her go quiet and sound like she's playing round then she goes back to loud screaming and won't settle until I come in and hold her and she'll eventually go back to sleep. I am pretty sure she has some new teeth trying to come in but this is out of the ordinary, especially since it's nearly the same time every night. So yes I can say I'm going through it, but as far as tips...I am hoping someone else has them.

Yep, been experiencing this too lately! Baby girl has always been an amazing sleeper, I used to be able to just lay her down awake but sleepy after a bottle and some rocking and dyed just go right to sleep. Now she will not let you leave her until she falls asleep. We have to stand there and rub her back until she drifts off. I think it's tied to the increased separation anxiety. Im hoping it's just a phase. She has been waking every so often too requiring help getting back to sleep. Sorry no advice, just commiserating!
